Chapter 617 If one day you think you understand right and wrong, it is definitely not the truth you see,
Should I be happy, or should I be dignified?
When Empress Pars saw Wren's report again, it was the first thought that occurred to her. If someone else had done what Wren did, she would have been happy, but now she wasn't.
What Wren did was indeed very inspiring on the surface, and the clouds of war over the Orlando Empire had dissipated a little. On the other hand, it was really inappropriate for him to do this, and it could be said that he was destroying the goal that Empress Pars had intended!
The war was not so much a disaster for the Orlando Empire as a chance for Empress Pars. Under the influence of external forces, those nobles and nobles who were originally not very obedient had to be honest, otherwise Empress Pars's casual hat with foreign contacts would be enough to make them cool from beginning to end. The longer the war lasted, and the greater the external pressure, the longer Empress Pars's grip on the entire empire became, the more terrifying it became.
Sometimes in the dead of night, Empress Pars would have a criminal thought, hoping that the Western Front would be broken through one or two nodes, and that the Iron Wall might not be able to hold it. Only such tremendous pressure would make all the nobles give up the idea of continuing to fight against the royal family and submit to her long skirt.
But Wren is destroying the gift that God has given her.
Not only did he hit the hinterland of the Byronic Empire, but he recently burned down nearly one-fifth of the Byronic Empire's grain reserves.
Perhaps one-fifth of the grain reserves are not an astonishing number from the perspective of the war, after all, there are still four-fifths of the grain reserves, but this involves a problem of rotation, not a simple addition and subtraction of numbers. If the Byronic Empire were unable to recover the lost grain from other sources, they could face a famine of at least a month or more before the new grain harvest this year.
It will also affect the war that is going on now!
What the hell does this damn guy want to do?
Listen to the propaganda of the scholars and civilians outside, who seem to see Wren as a savior, and it seems that only Wren can save this ridiculous war. Of course, the Empress Pars knew very well why these arguments were so bizarre, because the war was now deadlocked, and the arrogance and arrogance of the Desi made it impossible for anyone to accept the weak position that "we are actually passively defending".
They need a hero who will give them the thrill of constant victory, so that they can regain their deride from the broken pieces.
The most important point is that Empress Pars can do nothing about it, and she cannot say that the news of Wren's constant victories is actually sabotaging the royal family's century-old plan. It is even more impossible to make the same feat on the Western Front, not because of insufficient combat effectiveness, but because the terrain and desert environment are not enough for the Desi to fight under the full moon Golden Horde.
This embarrassing situation continued to make Rennes's prestige higher and higher, and some people even shouted the slogan of hitting the Byron Emperor and capturing the Byron Emperor alive!
These stupid civilians!
Throwing the paper in her hand into a ball and throwing it into the brazier, she can't control Wren, but she can control Bell Province without Wren. A light flashed through her mind, and she immediately had a good idea.
At this time, the Iron Wall Pass no longer had the tense atmosphere of some time before, and Wren's scorched earth tactics set a good example for the defenders, as long as the enemy appeared, he would entertain them with a sea of fire. The people on Byron's side will not be stupid enough to know that they will be sent to death if they run over, and they are in a hurry to turn their lives into a stroke in the other party's credit book. The two sides seem to maintain a high degree of agreement on the issue of the Weimar corridor, that is, they do not take the initiative.
Furman yawned and sat in the sun in the gate, he now regretted a little, regretted that he had not firmly bitten his position, and went with Wren to wreak havoc in the hinterland of the Byron Empire. He blamed himself a little now, he shouldn't have been afraid in the first place, and retreated early. Let's see, as long as the Marquis of Rennes returns, the royal family's rewards will definitely not be less, and there may even be special rewards.
Just as Furman was about to squint for a moment, a legion of 3,000 men arrived from within the Empire, and their captain demanded to see Furman immediately.
Furman was a little surprised and a little unhappy with this request, he was also a defender here anyway, even Rennes had never asked him to do so. Of course, he also knew very well that the person who came was holding the commission issued by the empress, which was definitely not something that a small person like him could offend, and he also hoped to wait for the end of the war to mix with a nobleman, so naturally he would not offend these big people.
The content of Empress Pars's mandate is not complicated, to put it simply, considering the huge pressure that the Iron Wall Pass may need to face, the Queen specially recruited 1,000 people from the Royal Guard, and another 2,000 elites from other nobles to take over the defense of the Iron Wall Pass. These people are all elite soldiers, and as for how Furman can see it, of course, it is with his eyes.
This group of soldiers with bright armor all over their bodies, from top to bottom a set of equipment may cost dozens of gold coins or even more, this is definitely not something ordinary people can make up, only the royal family and those nobles have the capital to arm every soldier to the teeth.
In the face of this young army commander named Bender, Furman recklessly handed over all his power, and from this day on, the entire Iron Wall Pass had nothing to do with him anymore, and the defenders were replaced by Bender's subordinates, and the entire Iron Wall Pass was completely handed over.
Furman didn't have any doubts about this, after all, these elites from the imperial capital seemed more reliable than the soldiers who were skilled in pumping water from past caravans, and Bender was also tasked with the task assigned by Empress Pars.
Bender does have a mission, but his mission is not to stop the Byronians from attacking, or to hold the level, but to do everything he can to keep Wren out.
He was one of the Empress's confidants, and from his great-grandfather onwards, he was always the staunchest royalist and never wavered. Whether or not the royal family was dominant within the empire, their family was a die-hard supporter of the royal family. That's why Empress Pars gave him this unspeakable task.
Even Bender knew one thing, and that was that in the Victory Pass across the Weimar corridor, there were people who had also received secret orders from the Empress.
Why did he block the Marquis of Rennes from the gate and prevent him from coming back, and even needed him to watch the Marquis of Rennes be wiped out by the Byrons, he was not interested, nor did he want to know, this was the duty of a nobleman, and he was absolutely not interested in knowing things that should not be known, not to mention that it also involved the struggle between the golden nobles, as well as the contest between Her Majesty the Empress and the Marquis of Rennes.
All he needed to do now was complete the task given to him by the Empress.
Many in the Empire believe that Wren will eventually return to Orlando and the Empire will take the Weimar Corridor, because this is the only way that is safe enough and the only way to go.
The high ice field is full of ice barbarians who don't like outsiders, coupled with the harsh climate and environment, as well as the occasional snow storm, it is very likely that Wren will not be able to get out of the ice field. If you go by water, let's not discuss how many ships he needs to pull so many people to pull it all, and the Byron battleship that runs rampant along the coast at this time is enough to sink them completely.
Compared to these two dangerous roads, it is obviously easier to attack the already broken victory pass from Byron's side. As long as you seize the opportunity, it is entirely possible to successfully cross the victory barrier and enter the Weimar corridor. Especially with the help of people with a heart, the Byronic people will never let go of such an opportunity.
So Bender is not worried about his mission.
He took out his beautiful pocket watch and looked at it, and then stuffed it into his arms, and the day passed like this.
He hoped that he would see Wren sooner, so that he could return to the imperial capital, either to the coast or to the Western Front, and to seek a heavy merit for his children and grandchildren. But emotionally, he didn't want to see Wren, because as long as Wren entered the Weimar corridor, he would definitely be dead.
Very ambivalent, Bender sighed, this is why he is reluctant to become a minister, he really does not like these things.
Isn't it good to be simple?
This is definitely not blaming Her Majesty, but Wren!
